You could get it ceracoated, its possible to match bluing pretty closely, and much improves the "look" of the rifle
Ta, I might look into it if the stainless look keeps annoying me. Its a vulcan barrel and shoots to well to replace.Quote:

Is that a Bahco knife @Ryan_Songhurst
Pretty sure I saw the same knife at Briscoes the other day. Didn't realize they sold Bahcos.Quote:

To the untrained eye, that may seem like yet another innocent photo of some 'toys'...Quote:

A knife from South America, a rifle from Britain, a scope from the USA, binoculars from Europe...all of which are strategically placed on top of a Tahr skin from NZ.
And underneath them all, providing support, is a carpet (from China).
Its a chamois skin...Quote:

Thanks buddy and congratulations to you also on your first witty post (well the first I have seen) its gonna be a hard act to follow but keep it up, go you!
Finished reinventing this Sako Bavarian I bought from RyanS. Ready for it’s SA Safari in July.
Big thanks to @garyp for the barrel band.

Looks like our going to need a stock pack , well unless you were born with an extended neck
Like the rifle.
The comb is no lower than the Bavarian. I initially got Sako lows for it but discovered the ejector propels the case straight into the underside of the scope, ejecting 1 of of every three cases. Poor ejector location from Sako. However I’m a big guy so it doesn’t matter.Quote:
